Tata Teleservices Says Its Enterprise Business Is Growing

"Our enterprise business is growing at 17 percent year-on-year for the last few years against industry growth of about 8 percent," Tata Teleservices President (Enterprise) Prateek Pashine said in Kolkata.

He said enterprise business accounts for 30 percent of the company's total revenue.

Pashine said Tata Teleservices is among the leaders in the Rs. 35,000 crores enterprise segment of the telecom industry of Rs. 2,00,000 crores.

Declining to disclose its overall marketshare in the enterprise business, saying there is no authentic data for that, Pashine said the company would strive to add 1-1.5 percent marketshare each year.

Tata Teleservices said it would continue to focus on both SME and large enterprises, but the former is growing at a faster pace.

Pashine said he did not think that non-availability of 4G licence for Tata Teleservices would pose any threat to the company's growth plans for the enterprise business, as it is able to deliver in accordance with industry demand by arrangements and alternate technologies.

He also welcomed competition in the market and said the company would continue to leverage its huge existing infrastructure.

Tata Teleservices has 1.2 lakh km of optic fibre cable network across the country and is continuously expanding its bandwidth, he added.
